More Than Coaches.
Mentors. Leaders.
Behind every S.A.S.S. athlete is a coaching team committed to helping them become stronger, more confident and more capable — both in sport and beyond it.
Led by Founder and Head Coach James Ambrosini, our coaches combine high-performance experience, specialist knowledge and genuine mentorship to create an environment where every athlete is challenged, supported and encouraged to reach their potential.
James Ambrosini
James founded S.A.S.S. Academy with a clear vision: to create an environment where young athletes can develop the skills, confidence and foundations needed to reach their potential.
Drawing on his experience in international Rugby Sevens, Sports Science and high-performance coaching, James understands that developing a complete athlete requires far more than physical ability alone.
His philosophy combines athletic development with confidence, discipline, resilience and character — helping young athletes perform at a higher level while developing qualities they can carry with them beyond sport.
